Israel’s Channel 2: The commander of a Givati Brigade unit was among those killed in the Golan.
Reports of a major in the Israeli Army killed and unconfirmed reports of the head of north #Israel military was killed too.
No mention of type of vehicles IDF was in, nor "missile" used against them. I surely hope they were not using another M113 as they were last summer in Gaza....Perhaps a newer RPG used? 30 series?
The IDF response will not be light!

Hezbollah fired 5 missiles at convoy
Hezbollah fired 5 Kornet guided anti-tank missiles at IDF vehicles this morning, Channel 2 reports. The first hit the Isuzu D-Max pickup truck, killing the company commander and another soldier.
The occupants of the two trailing vehicles quickly jumped out and found cover, moments before the other four missiles hit. The move likely saved their lives.

As revenge for the Hezbollah attack, Israel will attack... Syria?
Bad situation. The Spanish UN “peacekeeper” was supposedly killed in the Israeli counter-attack, so now the EU is all riled up (against Israel, of course).
Times of Israel: “Security brass meets in Tel Aviv to discuss response”
From the article:
“In a not-so-veiled swipe at Netanyahu, Livni emphasizes that Israel’s freedom of action depends on the strength of its alliance with the US and its quiet partnerships with Middle Eastern countries who also see a threat from terrorism.”
This could be 0b0z0’s campaign personnel making Netanyahu “pay a price” for daring to accept Boehner’s invitation.

Somewhere, Obama and his cronies are celebrating along with Hezbollah, they are one in the same..that is why the left is trying to get rid of BiBi Netanyahu so badly, because he won’t comply with the left’s vision for Israel, to no longer exist..Israel will respond to Hezbollah and LeBanon won’t like it when it happens
Very good friend going to Israel next week (long planned trip). Should he be concerned, or cancel it?
Hezbollah to Israel - It was revenge, we don’t want escalation. http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-4620483,00.html
